Winter Wish

The Robert F. Kennedy Children’s Action Corps, a local organization that helps abused and neglected kids, has a holiday program called Winter Wish. Winter Wish ensures that every child in the agency is provided with gifts for the winter holidays. And you can help!

Purchase a gift valued at no more than $25. Store gift cards, cash, or checks are particularly welcome.

Cash donations allow for staff to pick out specific gifts for the children.

Winter Wish gifts should be new or never-used items.

Please do not wrap your gift. Label your gift so that we know who has made the donation. Checks can be made out to “RFK Children’s Action Corps.”

There is a drop-off box at the Danvers Martial Arts Center. Gifts should be dropped off no later than 5 p.m. on December 10 to ensure the children will receive the presents in time for holiday celebrations.

The children at RFK Children’s Action Corps love sports, video games, and toys. Feel free to contribute anything you think the kids in your life would enjoy!
